Having problems with Finance::Quote, including on macOS, is a regular 
feature of the questions on this list. So, yes.

Have you read the page of the GnuCash wiki about Online Quotes, 
especially 
<https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Online_Quotes#Installing_Finance::Quote_on_macOS>?

Are you using Perl for anything apart from GnuCash's use for quotes? If 
so, then those uses may clash with GnuCash's uses.

Are you using Homebrew or MacPorts to install software onto your Mac?  
If so, they may have installed a separate copy of Perl which conflicts 
with the one GnuCash uses.

In the Terminal, please run these three commands, and let us know what 
output you get. (The '%' marks the command prompt in Terminal; you don't 
type in that part.)

% whence perl

% perl --version

% /usr/bin/perl --version

I hope we will be able to help you over this hump.
